You Will Never Have to Diet Again
Food is the fabric of our lives and at the center of every culture. When anyone thinks of dieting they immediately think of having to give up enjoying food and eating unappealing and tasteless meals. I have been on every diet imaginable, taken pills, I even drank those awful diet shakes; Metrical back in the 70’s to lose weight. After years of trial and error, I’ve finally discovered that none of that works. Losing weight naturally is not about what is on the fork going into your mouth, it is about how you think about the food you eat.

The Best Way to Lose Weight
Some people take better care of their car than they do of their body. Are you treating your physical vehicle as if it is divine? Neale Donald Walsh My Wake Up Call Nearly 10 years ago I experienced an extraordinary life change. I was about 100 pounds overweight when I went to see my doctor for a non-weight related medical problem. After he diagnosed my problem, he told me he wanted me to go to the lab to have blood work done. When I returned a week later for the results, he told me I was a couple of years away from diabetes and five years away from a stroke or heart attack.

Being in the Moment Transforms Our Lives
When we are living unaware of ourselves, we have a tendency to stay stuck in the past and ruminate over past mistakes we made. Retelling stories that are unchangeable is self-defeating; holding you back from a balanced and healthier life. ("Talking about our problems is our greatest addiction. Break the habit. Talk about your joys"...Rita Schiano) Worrying and creating a worse case scenario future is also debilitating. ("Every time we use the present to stress about the futu

Your Dream Doesn't Know Your Age
"Don't die with your music still in you" Wayne Dyer A very profound statement that is a reminder that no matter how old you are or where you are in your life, take a leap of faith and choose to live a life of passion and purpose I’ve never understood why we choose to live based on our age, because our age isn't aware of anything. Our age doesn't know how we feel, if we've achieved our dream, how we feel or why we make the choices we do, only our mind does. I was 58 when I c

Are you Ready to Live Agelessly?
Growing older is portrayed as if it is an unavoidable disease. What do you believe about aging and why? Why do you believe that as you grow older you will become decrepit, diseased and feeble-minded? We've been wrongly taught to believe that when we grow older we deteriorate. We've come to expect dementia, disease and physical weakness in our elder years.

How to get started
At the age of 12 I began over-eating to soothe the emotional insecurities of being different from other children my age. As I grew older and had to deal with life's challenges, eating too much and when I wasn't hungry became a way of life. As an adult when I was faced with a problem whether personal or business related, my solution was to eat and as much as I could to ease the stress and emotional pain. Only when I went through a year and half of personal growth changes and worked with a nonprofit healthcare clinic did I learn to change the way I thought about food and eating.
